- High-frequency vibrations cause fatigue of engineering structures and affect their durability and end-user comfort. High-frequency damping is not attainable by bulk materials due to restrictions at the molecular level. Here, we created the first damping meta-material, based on the locally resonant, free to move lattices using 3D woven material technology. Our material exhibits increased damping with forcing frequencies above 1000 Hz. Toyota Corporation (kazuki_sato_af@mail.toyota.co.jp) considers our material for components of their future electric vehicles. US patent has been granted for our technology. This paper was included in the top 100 articles in Material Science collection by Nature publisher in 2018.
